The story of two complex, talented, brilliant, ambitious people. Of particular interest is the sad journey of Henry, the son of a missionary, from a man of strong faith, moral character and high ideals, to a man who divorces his loving wife and leaves his two sons for Clare, a woman who matched his intellect, but brought few positive qualities to their relationship. Henry never gives up his faith, which causes great tension in his life as he struggles to maintain the faith while making choices diametrically opposed to its teachings. A well-researched and well-written biography. Mr. Martin had access to an unusual number of prime sources who talked freely. ( )
